Look Perfect, Feel Wonderful
It takes great knowledge, skill and experience to get every aspect of your appearance picture perfect, right down to the last detail. This is my passion!
Drawing on my French and Spanish heritage, I specialise in stunningly beautiful make up. I also provide hairstyling, spraytanning, beauty treatments and personal styling without the high price tag. It is up to you. Just tell me what you would like!
Based in Christchurch, New Zealand, I have over 25 years experience in the makeup and hair industry. My clients include bride of the year winners, professional singers, TV presenters, modelling agencies and women's magazines… Yulia, Silver Fern netball player Maree Bowden, Black Sticks player Honor Dillon, New Zealand Woman’s Weekly and New Zealand Woman's Day.
I would love to help you look perfect and feel wonderful too.
It’s all about you on your big day…
Look and feel your very best for weddings, anniversaries, school balls, graduations, reunions, parties, candle-lit dinners, corporate events, interviews and photo shoots.
Whether you want to look very natural, dramatic or something in between, your wish is my command.
Visit my private studio for beauty treatments including a perfect spray tan that develops in just two hours, eye brow shape, brow tint or eye lash tint. You’ll love the exquisite French and Spanish furniture.
Then on the big day I can travel to you to do your make-up so you can relax at your chosen preparation venue. If desired my team or I could do your hair as well, or I am happy to work in with your hairdresser.
I only use safe and healthy products such as my all natural SunFX spray tan and very own Georgie makeup range. They’re kind to sensitive skin and photograph perfectly in New Zealand’s unique golden light.
and every day...
Looking great gives you so much confidence. I can teach you how to create your own unique look. I can provide:
- Advice about clothes, accessories, hair and makeup

Please let me help you achieve the look you want for your special day or every day! Take a moment to look around my website and then contact me to discuss your needs. I look forward to hearing from you.
